# Cloud providers overview

Overview of the cloud provider connectors Harness supports and where to set up each one.

Harness cloud provider connectors integrate your cloud platforms with Harness. A connector provides the connection information and credentials Harness needs to perform tasks such as obtaining artifacts, provisioning infrastructure, and deploying services.

## What you will learn from this topic

* The prerequisites for [creating a cloud provider connector](#before-you-begin).
* How to find the [cloud provider connector](#cloud-provider-connectors) that matches your integration.

***

## Before you begin

* You can create a cloud provider connector at the account, org, or project scope.
* If you use a cloud provider connector with [Harness Cloud build infrastructure](https://developer.harness.io/continuous-integration/use-harness-ci/set-up-build-infrastructure/use-harness-cloud-build-infrastructure), set **Connectivity Mode** to **Connect through Harness Platform**.
